Tsutomu!
That was awesome yesterday!
...people look like trash.
Who do you think is responsible for this?


　When Tsutomu involuntarily let out a small voice, Leleia retorted with eyes as sharp as those of a snake. An unusual number of people were gathered around Tsutomu, whose popularity had exploded all at once after his great success the other day, as if they were surrounding him in a zoo cage.

　Due to the influence of Stephanie and Lorena, who stood out in the divine platform, the view of healers had changed a lot from before, and now the environment was such that they could have fans. Thanks to that, Tsutomu received a lot of attention from the fans, as he showed an unprecedented performance the other day. Overnight, Tsutomu's reputation for being a step behind the front line disappeared, and most of the attention was focused on him as a top healer.

　And as soon as they left the clan house to go to Shentai to check on the second army PT, everyone from newspaper reporters to spectators swarmed like ants that had found sugar. That small group grew in numbers and became more and more numerous, until the next thing I knew, there was a commotion until the security team was traveling.


'Absolutely. Why should I be forced to clean up the mess you've made?


　Smith, the eldest son of the Babenberg family, who was helping to calm down the commotion caused by Tsutomu's unexpected popularity, had a disgruntled look on his face as he staked out a soft barrier magic to protect the direction of Tsutomu's progress.


''It's easy, so I appreciate it, but I didn't ask for it, so I don't want to be told that much.''
You... then what would you have done if I wasn't here?
''If Leleia can enlist the help of the spirits, she can put up a wind barrier, and I can handle it myself with a barrier.
...Is that so?


　So returned by Tsutomu, Smith turned his radiant golden eyes to Leleia as if to confirm it. Then she looked like she was cowering and immediately bowed her head reverently.


''No way, sir. Barrier magic is safer, and you all won't have to suffer any discomfort.''
Ho. Someone with a little bit of sense of decorum, eh?


　By the way, Hanna and Daryl, who are very weak in power, are completely silent to avoid saying anything inappropriate, so Leleia is the only one who responded properly to Smith here. It's a good thing that you're in a good mood for her attitude, Smith looked at Tsutomu.


It's not a matter of politeness, you are a searcher now. I'm a level above you, do you have the courtesy to be polite?
''........You really are always acting like that, aren't you? Even if you're a nobleman in the same aristocracy, you wouldn't talk this much.


　Smith, who was considering the possibility that he was being rude to himself because he wanted to dress up in front of his lovely sister, pinched the bridge of his nose with his pale fingers in disgust when he saw Tsutomu, who was still the same as ever. In contrast, Tsutomu looked as if he was stuck in a traffic jam.


''Do you think you can make it to Kamindai already?
''After causing so much commotion, you still care about Kamindai, that's a swallow. It's going to be a while yet.
'Huh.... It's not too late for Corina and the others to go under. I should have listened to Amy if this was going to happen. I really screwed up. I'm going to get a fly and wipe it out.
'As I'm sure you know, you're not allowed to fly in town,'


　Although Amy had warned him the day before that there might be a commotion today, Tsutomu, who was optimistic about that, went out as usual. That had led to the current situation of waiting in line, and he regretted inwardly that he hadn't done it in a long time.

　Then Smith slowly advanced the soft barrier so that the people would not be injured, and made his way to the divine table. But the initial commotion had taken up a lot of time, and they were stranded for two or three hours.


''Wow, we're about halfway through. d*mn.


　And by the time they managed to reach the designated seats, the second army PT had already entered the middle game. It is a good idea to have a good idea of what you want to do.


'Holy wishes, prayers.'


　The holy wish, the mainstay of the prayer warrior, is a skill that enables him to recover his mental power after a few minutes and the amount of hate he earns is very small, so it is very efficient. Furthermore, the prayer to speed up the speed of the next wish or prayer is also the mainstay skill of the prayer warrior. Korina, who was reflected in the Divine Table, was using the skill while holding the Talisman to recover her own mental power.

　However, in this world, even healers have not yet matured in this environment, and among them, no research has been done on prayer warriors at all. But Korina was told by Tsutomu, 'Live Dungeon! He was definitely the best at standing out of the current crop of prayer warriors because he was taught the prayer warrior template for


The Healing Light.


　And as for petrification and implicit, he can use healing light to instantly heal, so his compatibility with the End of the World is not so different from that of a white mage. The proof of this is that the two of them have been able to bring it to the middle of the game, where the purple magic eye appears against Naraku no Teikoku. Looking at Corina's impatient but not yet resigned face, a prayer of resuscitation must have already been made against the two dead men.


'Combat Cry.'


　And Garum, who was releasing his red fighting spirit towards the end of the world, was relying on his superior hearing to conduct the battle. Therefore, not to mention the purple magic eye, the petrification state is not progressing very well despite being targeted by the end of the world. And he didn't dare to avoid direct attacks from the end of the world, and only served as a tank while defending the parts of the critical judgment.


''Rock splitting blade, boost!


　The remaining Amy was thorough in her movements to accurately aim at the eyes, trying to frighten the Narated Ends so that the attack would not go too far to Garum. The eyes of the Narated End are composed of magical power, so even if they were destroyed, they would heal in a few dozen seconds, but they still had a strong tendency to protect the eyes. And in addition to the skill combos, Amy's efficiency kitchen-like standing, which properly managed her remaining mental power, was seemingly unassuming, but it definitely limited Naraku's movements.


'Excuse me. Corina, do you know how many times I've resuscitated you so far?
Oh, that's four times in total. One for Amy Amira and two for Xeno.
...I see.
'Your prayer warrior is awesome. Not even Stephanie or Lorena can hold a candle to her.


　In response to the answer of a labyrinth maniac he knew who said that with a happy face, Tsutomu frowned as he wrote down the information and looked at the second unit with the second PT on display. The fact that he was able to bring them back to life four times is a good thing in itself, and it means that Korina is able to successfully turn around the prayer of resuscitation while giving her mental strength plenty of time to do so. But that also means that he's certainly earning his hate from the end of his life.

　Corrina is getting better as a prayer warrior, but she's not quite there yet when it comes to commanding the PT. Compared to Tsutomu, who has experience commanding raid battles many times and even has prior knowledge, he is several levels inferior in any case. And also the hate from the end of the world is much more than that of Tsutomu, and she herself is probably the most aware of that.

　The fight is not over yet. The PT hasn't collapsed since the revival prayers have already been completed. But the disadvantageous situation remains unchanged, and it remains a painful one. When Amira and Xeno come back to life, to Corina, the hate will build up again, so Garum will have to gather more hate.


''Guh........!


　But if you push it, Garum won't be safe either. It's not easy for even an 80-level tank to catch a simple body blow from the huge body of a slash with claws that are very strong despite its flexible movements. The next thing you know, one of Garum's arms was severed from his elbow with his aching armor, and he rolled on the ground with a sound like a chunk of metal falling off.

　And as time passed, Korina's expression grew painful, as if she were swimming without breath. The disadvantageous battle situation is understandable because of her wide perspective. The hint of death she can see becomes more colorful, and she feels like she's suffocating too much and wants to throw herself out.


''It's tough....''


　The suffocating and heart-wrenching pressure that comes from that difficult situation is the game, Live Dungeon! Many of them couldn't even stand it. Tsutomu himself had thrown himself out many times, and even watching the other healers was a common occurrence.

　The emotions that consume the mind are still immeasurable to Tsutomu when it comes to this real world. But an average healer, around Aldoret Crow's Kisaragi, would have been able to break it. We can do it all over again, so let's just give up this time. As long as we retrieve the equipment, the only loss is the cost of the equipment. It's more efficient to give up early rather than trying too hard and losing equipment. The longer you've been a seeker, the sweeter the words of escape from your painful situation will appear in your mind.


''A wish for healing!


　But Korina is unbreakable. Even in a situation where Tsutomu, who was only an intermediate level player, would have been complaining on a message board, she was doing what she could. Not only the labyrinth maniacs who had been paying attention to Korina's healer since the Winter General battle, but the rest of the crowd also began to pay attention to her dedicated support recovery.


(But that one's no better.)


　Kolina's mentality of being able to continue supporting and recovering in such a situation without decay is worthy of praise, but there is still no one in the Second Army PT who can perfectly handle the end-of-life battle like Tsutomu. As a result, the middle battle, which was prone to unforeseen events, was unstable, and as a result, they were wiped out at the same stage as Aldoret Crow.


''The two armies are good too! It's like a battle between Silver Beast, Aldoret Crow, and the Infinite Circle?''


　But even so, the equipment lost was not that painful, as even the arm part of Garum that was cut off was recovered. Besides, this time, it was also noticeably unlucky that the accidental deaths caused by the purple magic eye were frequent as soon as they entered the middle game, so the impressions of the labyrinth maniacs and spectators were not bad.


'....Huh. What shall I say to Corina and the others?


　However, Tsutomu, who had unexpectedly missed the beginning of the battle between the two PTs this time, left afterwards, looking like he was blaming himself to the point that Leleia was worried about him. By the way, Smith accompanied him on the way back.
